We get a lot of first timers on this run. It's not like a typical MINI run since this one is a charity run. You do still get to meet a slew of MINIacs and talk MINIs, admire MINIs and support our local veterans

I see people RSVP'ing here, please also RSVP on the DCMetro MINIs site. We can't keep track on multiple locations and we need an accurate count to organize things properly. There are two RSVPs on the site, one for the drive and one for the lunch.

The beltway run is just a small portion of the event. There's a lot of socializing before and then at the restaurant, which is fun. Also, it's kind of like a beltway parade. We have flags on our MINIs and people do wave and toot at us. It actually is fun

It's more fun then you would think because of the social aspects. We currently have 50 MINIs signed up and usually get 60 - 80, we turn it into a bit of a parade to honor our veterans and it actually is fun.

We're about:

Do you love your MINI? Does your MINI have a name? a birthday? a photo album? Can you tell the difference between Electric Blue, Laser Blue, and Space Blue? When someone mentions the words "boot" or "bonnet", do you think of articles of clothing or parts of your Coop?

You're not alone. Welcome. We share your affliction.

Whether your a MINI owner, a prospective owner or just MINI-curious, come join our Meetup group to share your experiences and meet other enthusiasts for driving and social events.
